Penn Army of None is a grassroots campaign to demilitarize our state and our schools.
Notes
More Thanks
Thanks to the incredible generosity of my good friend and superb graphic designer Eric Ashleigh, we now have FIVE additional brochures! In addition to printed copies, the files he created are small enough to download directly from our site, so be sure to check out all the new stuff in the Resources section.
Anyone in need of graphic design help (print or web), visit Eric's web site at http://www.behance.net/solitairecollective.

More Grant News!
Penn Army of None was recently awarded a generous grant from the Haverford Quarterly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends.

We will also use the funds to expand our volunteer recruitment efforts.
Many thanks to the good folks of Haverford Quarterly…

The list is long; since August, Penn Army of None has been recognized with Minutes of support and grants from Old Haverford Friends Monthly Meeting and Haverford Quarterly Meeting; we have received (and continue to receive) pro bono accounting services from Community Accountants; a Friend is translating some of our materials into Spanish for… Continue
